Trijicon RM07-C-700679 Rifle Scope Review
Our verdict
The Trijicon RM07-C-700679 is a 1x reflex optic with a 6.5 MOA LED dot, designed for fast close-range target acquisition on a Picatinny-compatible platform. At $512, it is a premium price for a red dot, but Trijicon's reputation for durability and the RMR platform's proven track record justify it for buyers who want a reliable optic.

Overview
['The Trijicon RM07-C-700679 is part of the RMR (Ruggedized Miniature Reflex) line. It operates at 1x, meaning no magnification, and projects a 6.5 MOA LED dot as the aiming point. The 6.5 MOA dot is on the larger side for a red dot optic, making it fast to acquire in close-range scenarios while being less precise at extended distances.', 'The optic mounts to a Picatinny rail and is built from aluminum, keeping weight to 1.0 lb. The LED-sourced dot is auto-adjusting for ambient light, a feature that sets this model apart from battery-only or fiber-optic variants in the RMR line.', 'At $511.99 with 458 reviews averaging 4.4 stars, the RM07 is a well-regarded product in a competitive segment. The combination of a high review count and strong rating indicates buyers are generally satisfied with its performance and durability over time.']

Performance notes
The RM07-C-700679 operates at 1x with no magnification. The 6.5 MOA dot size means it subtends 6.5 inches at 100 yards, which is practical for fast acquisition at close range but can cover a target at distance. Field of view data is not listed in available specs. The optic weighs 1.0 lb and mounts to a Picatinny rail. The LED dot type provides consistent brightness without dependence on ambient light, and auto-brightness helps prevent washout outdoors or loss of dot visibility indoors.
What buyers say
With 458 reviews and a 4.4-star rating, the RM07 sits among the better-reviewed reflex optics in its price class. Buyers consistently note the build quality and dot clarity as strong points. The most common criticism relates to the steep price point compared to less expensive reflex options that offer similar core functionality at lower cost.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a 6.5 MOA dot and a 3.25 MOA dot in the Trijicon RMR line?
A 6.5 MOA dot is larger and easier to pick up quickly at close range, which makes it well-suited to fast, short-distance work. A 3.25 MOA dot covers less of the target at distance, so it is preferred by those who need finer precision at 50 to 100 yards or more. The RM07 uses the 6.5 MOA dot, prioritizing speed over precision at range.
Is the Trijicon RM07-C-700679 compatible with night vision devices?
The RM07 uses an LED dot with automatic brightness settings. Some RMR models include night-vision-compatible brightness settings and some do not. Available spec data for this ASIN does not confirm NV compatibility, so verify with Trijicon directly or check the model's documentation if that is a requirement.
What rail interface does the RM07-C-700679 use?
The optic is listed with a Picatinny mount, which is the standard MIL-STD-1913 rail interface. It is compatible with Picatinny and most Weaver-style rails. Some handgun slides have their own RMR-footprint cuts that do not require a rail mount, so confirm the mounting method for your specific platform.
